Wow - sounds fun! It kind of makes my head spin, but once you dig in, it's probably less daunting! Can't wait to see what books you end up reading for it!
ReplyDeleteI go after challenges as sort of an after thought. I read what I plan to and then go back to see if it fits in anywhere. That way there is less pressure!
